Soul doens't know he got disowned, and thus goes to Brittleshire. He goes to a shop to buy supplies, hiding the stone under his coat. Then he goes to Cloudmore, and wonders around the city. The Nyrote stone "pulls" Soul towards the house the first of the three Nyrote stones is in. At night, Soul breaks into the house but gets caught by Skye before he could reach the Nyrote stone. Soul explains how he got there, and why he broke in. Skye believes him because he too has one of the stones (she is naive in this scene). Soul stays the night at Skye's house sleeping on the couch in the living room. The next morning, Soul, Skye and her father are eating breakfast together. Edward read the newspaper of today and reads about the Archmulite stone lighting up in Copper Bay. Soul and Skye thus decide to go to Copper Bay.
